Does anyone know what the herbal supplement Devil's Claw actually does? Because, y'know, part of me wants to start taking it simply because it's called Devil's Claw.

As of tomorrow I shall be away in deepest, darkest Dorset for the weekend, at a family wedding. My family are much like sarlldynasty, but freakier. At the last full-ticket family wedding I attended, I became quite convinced that my entire life in London was a hallucinatory life I had conjured up in my head simply to escape.

If it's anything like any of my family weddings you'll want to take a bath in bleach for about a week afterwards...

[barrysarll.livejournal.com]

I've been contemplating snorting bleach as a way to deal with my sinuses once and for all. Yay for multitasking!

[papamoomin.livejournal.com]

It's a win/win situation!

[suicideally.livejournal.com]

Once again, trust me to know this but... base amphetamine is cleaned using bleach, and crystal meth is cooked up using drain cleaner and ephedrine. So lots of people do snort bleach.

[papamoomin.livejournal.com]

Yeek. That's something I could have done without learning...

[suicideally.livejournal.com]

I like to look at it as just being extra hygienic...

[papamoomin.livejournal.com]

I suppose. at least I know my nasal passage is clean and sterile...

[barrysarll.livejournal.com]

See, the first idea was just to burn my sinuses out with stimulants but then I remembered I don't actually like them, so I might as well cut out the middleman and go straight to the bleach.

[suicideally.livejournal.com]

I have a couple of grammes of something I couldn't snort because the tears ruined my make-up that I suspect might have been just that.

[papamoomin.livejournal.com]

Set fire to the bleach first. Just for the added danger value.

[barrysarll.livejournal.com]

Dude, I just want to get rid of the sinuses, not my whole damn face - it's Locking who wants to be DOOM!

[papamoomin.livejournal.com]

Point. I'll set fire to the poppers before I hand them to him next time I'm at slimelight. :)

When I assume power and form a cabinet, I will need experts around me, and you are so Minister For Getting Off One's Fvcking Face.

Drug Tzar?

[barrysarll.livejournal.com]

Yes, the position will finally live up to the title.

We tried our best. We tried our darn best, we really did! Must you always rub salt into the wound?

Must you always rub salt into the wound?

You turned me into this, so you should know the answer to that.

[suicideally.livejournal.com]

If Devil's Claw is the same as Damiana (the names suggest they might be) it's a stimulant.

(Trust me to know that).

[barrysarll.livejournal.com]

Oooh. But does it actually hype one enough to enable Wolverine-style slash action or (even better) Phillip Pullman-style rips in the fabric between worlds?

[catsgomiaow.livejournal.com]

I think Devil's Claw is a de-stressy kind of herb, and something to take instead of aspirin if you have a headache. I *think* anyway!

[catsgomiaow.livejournal.com]

Yup! Anti-inflammatory: http://www.healthandage.com/html/res/com/ConsHerbs/DevilsClawch.html

you can all call me a hippy now...

[barrysarll.livejournal.com]

Boooooooooooooooooooring.

But thank you for your assistance.

[barrysarll.livejournal.com]

Also - AAARGH! Curry = Wrong. Beer = Wrong. Are you trying not only to disappoint me in my hopes of DEVIL CLAW POWERS but actually kill me?

[catsgomiaow.livejournal.com]

You are clearly a curry-hating mentalist! :)

[barrysarll.livejournal.com]

Yes, and?

[catsgomiaow.livejournal.com]

And nothing! You just are!

[barrysarll.livejournal.com]

Yes, and proud of it!
